I applied online. The process took 8 months. I interviewed at IRS (Philadelphia, PA)
Interview
the interview is a 3 panel interview, and each of the interviewers ask you a questions one by one and you have to respond. They take notes on your responses and they proceed to the next question. You have to impress most of them to get the job.

I attended a direct hiring career event for LB&I in April 2024. I was interviewed by a panel of 3 senior revenue agents, they asked me behavioral questions (tell me about a time when you faced a stressful situation, tell me about a time when you had to juggle multiple deadlines, etc.) and also questions on which tax forms I had experience with.
